Nothing is official yet

India Walton, the Democratic nominee, who was hoping to make history as the city’s first female mayor fell to incumbent Bryon Brown in voting yesterday.

Walton beat out Byron Brown for the Democratic nomination but Brown decided to defy his party and run in yesterday election as a write in candidate

As of last night "write in" received 59 percent of the vote and Walton had 41 percent.

Walton has yet to concede telling supporters last night, "Every vote needs to be counted. Right now it’s Walton against write-in, whoever that is. I think that who write-in is remains to be seen."
